hogwarts, hall, lunchtime

On the professor's seat, Godric Gryffindor bit the bread and complained vaguely: "Why hasn't Salazar come? I haven't seen him in the morning. Helga, you know what happened something?"

Helga silently cut the steak on the plate without answering.Rowena Ravenclaw frowned and said, "Godric, if you want to go to Salazar, go by yourself. Helga is eating."

Godric regretted his question just now. He hadn't noticed the increasingly delicate relationship between Helga and Salazar, and he had been curious for a long time. They were like lovers, but a little awkward.Slytherin was indeed gentle with Hufflepuff, but there was always a strange rustiness between the two.But he just couldn't learn to speak intelligently, and he couldn't remember how many times this kind of silence had happened.After a quick lunch in a hair-raising atmosphere, he decided to check on Salazar.

Godric stood in front of the Medusa portrait, "Salazar, it's me, Godric, are you there?"

"Come in. (Bedroom)" The snake language followed by English made him scratch his hair irritably, and the door opened.

The design of the Slytherin headmaster's room is very special, using complex space magic.Corresponding to the same door, the owner can enter dozens of rooms, a commonly used set includes an office, bedroom, lounge, and the food storage room of the basilisk Eris.For guests, it depends on the owner's will to enter which set, or which house.Snake language must be used to trigger the spell. Of course, Slytherin also left a contract entrance for his future successor, but they can only enter a prepared set of dean's room.

So when Godric found himself in Slytherin's bedroom, he could roughly guess that Slytherin was still in bed.

He walked unceremoniously to the left side of the ornate four-poster bed and sat down, lifted the black satin curtains, and said, "Get up, you have two potions lessons this afternoon, Salazar, when will you become?" Lazy?"

"Godric, you've come just in time, I need your help." The Slytherin turned his face towards him, a movement that was not only labored but also odd for him lying on his right side.

Godric was momentarily confused, but he asked anyway, "What can I do?"

"Help me down Eris, I didn't expect snakes to have nightmares when they're hibernating."

Godric lifted the bed curtain and tore off the blanket.Salazar was lying on the bed in a dark purple nightgown, the emerald green basilisk that Godric hated so much was wrapped around his waist, his head was pressed on his left leg, and he seemed to be sleeping happily.

Godric stretched out his hand to untie the basilisk with great effort, and moved it to the carpet in front of the bed. The poor little guy twisted a few times from side to side and climbed up the bed post in a daze. "are you OK?"

"If you have time, please bring me the topical antidote from the cabinet on the left."

Godric turned around and looked for the potion again, "You can just use the levitating spell to move Eris away, if we don't come, why don't you lie down for a day?"

"After a very memorable night with the blood prince and two bites, even with the recovery potion, I couldn't use the levitation spell to remove Eris. In fact, I was about to call Come here alone." The basilisk's scales can almost completely counteract ordinary spells, and the only way to float Eris up is with black magic, which is usually not difficult.And now, he can't.After using the Portkey to return to Hogwarts, he ignored Eris' trick about "I want a bed" and fell asleep directly.Waking up with backache from being entangled by Eris, he chose to find someone to come over, and Godric arrived before he could ring the bell for the valet.

"You were bitten?" Gryffindor rushed back from the bottles to the bed, leaning closer to the Slytherin's neck.

A handkerchief was covered on the left side of the neck as far as the eye could see. Judging from the faint brown marks on the handkerchief and the smell of potion, Slytherin had already treated the wound.

"Godric, can you bring the external antidote first?" Slytherin reminded helplessly.

Godric Gryffindor was completely unresponsive.Among the smell of the potion, he could distinguish another smell - the cold peppermint smell.There is no peppermint in the topical antidote, he thought vaguely.Godric suddenly felt a loud bang in his ears, and a gear in his heart that had been heavy and stagnant began to rotate, and all the thoughts in the past that seemed to be sinking under the surface of calm water gradually became clear, showing the deepest truth.

It turned out that I thought so.

"Godric?"

"Godric?"

He came back to his senses, panicked, and kept leaning over in a dilemma. In the chaos, he forced himself to say calmly, "Is the injury serious?"

"It's nothing, but you're blushing, Godric." Salazar's questioning tone was very close to his ear. "Although you often put yourself in various strange situations, can you explain to me what this expression in front of me means?"

Godric was so stiff that he couldn't move, his throat was tight, and he couldn't speak a word.

"The last time you showed this expression was three years ago, when we were looking for a suitable tree to make a wand, and you found the most suitable tree," Slytherin's tone changed, with a strong warning and Ironically, "Then I had to race with you against thirty or so Bowtruckles, because some young Muggle-born wizard didn't know that there was a thing called woodjack in the world, even though his poor friend brought a large Bao. Thanks to Apparition, I can appreciate this expression again. Maybe this time, he will be happy to tell me, what happened again?"

"Uh," Godric was sobered by his cold tone, and his mind became flexible, "I saw a sword made by a goblin yesterday, I think..."

"Whether you want to buy it or grab it, it's not suitable for the near future, you can try it next month. Now, can you give me the topical potion, Godric?"

"Of course, right now." Gryffindor stood up quickly and walked away.

Slytherin narrowed his eyes slightly. Gryffindor's anomaly might be related to the sword, but that was by no means the whole story.The main reason should have something to do with me, Gryffindor doesn't want to say it now, but...

If it's something as important as salt and water, sooner or later, I'll know.He took the potion and watched Gryffindor leave. His back looked a little embarrassed no matter how he looked.
